Chapter 549 Go
The dark night sky is as quiet as water.
The whole dream was dead silent.
The deep dream sea reflects the moonless night sky, making it look particularly dark.
There is a vast land floating in the depths of the ocean, and only a towering black castle stands between the mountains.
A young man with short golden-red hair was wearing a nightgown, sitting cross-legged on the top of the clock tower in the center of the castle, closing his eyes and meditating.
At this moment, Jilan fully deployed his spiritual vision.
The entire Black Castle is within his range of perception.
Round after round of "ripples" are rippling in the mid-air all around. This "ripple" has no color or shape, but is just an extremely obscure trace of energy.
It is harmless to the ascended and undetectable by mortals.
If you don't observe it deliberately, it can be easily ignored like air.
‘There are so many “ripples” in Castle Black. ’
Gillan observed silently and found that the closer to the castle attic, the more and denser the "ripples" were.
Because that is Miss Torina's boudoir.
He took a deep breath, secretly activated his spirituality, and then relaxed his mind, pulling the "ripple" energy around him as if he had absorbed the elements of the universe.
In an instant, the rounds of "ripples" were distorted, as if with Jilan as the center, they turned into a black hole swallowing the lines, absorbing all these "ripples" into the body.
Jilan felt the "ripple" energy flowing and gradually filling in her body, feeling an indescribable sense of comfort.
'panel. ’
He secretly said.
Immediately, a colorful frame appeared in the field of vision:
"Gilan Iros (Mo Xing)."
"Male, 22 years old."
"Original level: Level 7."
"Plasma: Cheating (Original)."
"...(omitted)"
"Ripple Energy: 620."
"Mysterious Points: 23970."
"Si Chen Candidate (Owner of Rhythm String)."
Ji Lan looked at his own panel and knew something in his mind.
One day of practice can accumulate about 100 points of "ripple energy", which is equivalent to a year of hard work for an average seventh-level ascender.
If you want to meet the requirements for promotion to the eighth-level transmator, then converted, it will be about 10,000 points.
‘It only takes about three or four months, no more than half a year at most, before I can start the “transformation”? ’
Ji Lan was quite surprised.
But he quickly realized that he had unique advantages that others did not have. It would be strange if his cultivation speed was not fast!
After all, which ascended person can live directly next to Si Chen, just without a bed to sleep on. Which ascended person has a complete "string of law" with its own source of "ripples"?
Gillan shook his head.
He spent more than an hour digesting the "ripples" he absorbed, and then used his spirituality to activate the "strings of law" he possessed again.
Round after round of "ripples", with him as the center, swayed in all directions... However, before most of these "ripples" radiated, they were pulled back by Jilan, absorbed cleanly, and produced and sold by himself. .
After two consecutive rounds of practice, several hours have passed.
Gilan let out a long breath and stood up contentedly. After moving his body for a while, he turned around and left the clock tower rooftop.
…
…
Torina is still resting.
When Gilan came to His boudoir, which was surrounded by golden fences and looked like a birdcage, he found that the girl was still lying on the huge princess bed.
The white curtains drooped, revealing only a vague outline. Torina was lying on her side, her little hands on the pillow in front of her, sleeping soundly.
Gilan put his hand on the golden fence door handle and twisted it gently.
Click.
The door opened.
‘Tolina didn’t lock the door? ’
Ji Lan was startled.
He still remembered that the door was locked when he first came here...but now, Torina seemed to be no longer on guard against him.
Ji Lan pushed open the door and walked slowly to the bed.
When he opened the curtain and took a look, he met a pair of dark and beautiful eyes.
"Are you awake?"
Gilan and Torina looked at each other before whispering.
The girl sat up from the bed, her black hair was like a waterfall, and she looked pitiful. She nodded slightly and said:
"I heard the sound of sir opening the door."
"Did I disturb your rest?"
Gillan looked apologetic.
Torina quickly shook her head.
"No. My sleep has always been light. The slightest disturbance will wake me up."
"No wonder Castle Black is so quiet."
Gillan laughed.
At this time, Torina raised her eyes and asked:
"Sir, are you going back to earth?"
"Yeah." Gillan said. "I may stay in this world for a while longer this time, and I need to find an object that is very important to me."
"Okay." Torina looked well-behaved and said with a smile. "Sir, you can come back at any time... After all, you have imprinted your soul on Castle Black, and this is your residence."
"Of course."
Gillan also smiled.
"I feel particularly at peace when I stay here, especially when I am with you."
Hearing this, Torina was startled.
On his fair face, a blush appeared visibly to the naked eye.
Ji Lan silently leaned down and gave the girl a hug, holding her waist with her right hand and stroking her head with her left hand.
Smelling the floral fragrance from Torina's hair, he whispered softly:
"I'll be back soon."
Torina closed her eyes, enjoying Mr. Gillan's warm embrace. He rested his head lightly on the other person's shoulder and opened his mouth slightly:
"Well, I'll wait for you."
…
…Early morning.
Through "demotion", Gillan returned to the world.
He drove out of the apartment at No. 9 Morales Street and went to the "Moran Bookstore" in East Muse.
The silver car was parked in the middle of the street.
After Ji Lan got out of the car, he looked up and saw the sign of the small bookstore on the roadside.
There were not many people on the street at this time, only a few men rushing to work and a few yawning newsboys squatting on the roadside.
When Gilan came to the door of the bookstore, he found that the bookstore was not open for business yet, and there was a wooden closing sign on the door handle.
‘Is it too early? ’
Just as Gilan was debating whether to wait there or go to a nearby restaurant for breakfast, he heard footsteps coming from the bookstore.
Immediately, the doorknob twisted.
A jingle.
The bookstore door opened, and a long-haired lady wearing glasses walked out.
When she saw Gilan standing at the door, the sleepy-eyed lady was stunned.
"Mr. Gillan?!"
"Good morning, Cecilia."
Gilan pinched the brim of his hat and greeted him in a gentlemanly manner.
The female bookstore owner quickly came to her senses and said:
"Good morning, sir."
She seemed quite embarrassed. She stroked her wrinkled collar several times and her hair that she had not yet had time to take care of. She leaned sideways and walked through the door, saying:
"Sorry, I'm rude... Sir, please come in."
Ji Lan smiled and nodded, and walked in.
Not long after.
He sat at a round table in the bookstore, and Cecilia brought him hot coffee.
"Secor coffee beans, a specialty of the southern empire."
"Thank you."
Gillan took the coffee and took a sip.
At this time, Cecilia stood at the table and asked cautiously:
"I wonder if Mr. Gillan came here today for something important?"
In fact, the news that the "Red Sage" ascended not long ago and broke through the encirclement and suppression campaign by the federal superiors has already spread among the top people and forces in the mysterious field.
Among them, "Ningli Bookstore" was naturally one of the first secret societies to learn the news, so Cecilia couldn't help but feel a little cautious when facing this "living legend" again.
"Cecilia, sit down and talk, don't be so nervous."
Gillan put down the coffee cup and smiled.
Hearing this, the lady dared to pull out her chair and sit down.
"I plan to go to the big library of your 'Ningli Bookstore' to find something I need."
Gillan took out a hard card from his coat pocket, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Cecilia.
The lady first glanced at the young man, then picked up the card, with a look of surprise on her face.
"Is this a 'Platinum Library Card'?"
Cecilia raised her eyebrows.
"I haven't seen this kind of voucher for a long time... The last time it was issued to distinguished guests of the bookstore was more than ten years ago."
"I got this card unexpectedly. I wonder if I can use it?"
Gillan asked.
Cecilia was startled.
"Okay!" She nodded quickly. "Although the voucher is issued to distinguished guests of the bookstore, it does not have a signature. No matter who has the voucher, it can be used... Of course, as Mr. Gillan, if necessary, the bookstore will definitely customize a brand new 'Platinum Loan' for you. Card'."
"No need." Gillan waved. "As long as this card works."
"Then please wait a moment while I contact Mr. Walter Van Cleef, the 'librarian'."
"Okay."
Immediately afterwards, Cecilia took out the wordless book filled with alchemical symbols and summoned Walter's projection.
After a brief explanation, Walter understood Gilan’s intention.
When the bookstore administrator saw Gilan again, his attitude was obviously lower. Not only did he take the initiative to salute, but his tone was quite respectful:
"Mr. Gillan, on behalf of the bookstore, I would like to welcome and honor your visit... The books in the Great Library will be at your disposal, and the collections will be at your disposal."
"Very good."
Ji Lan looked satisfied.
"I'm looking for a fragment of a real film called "Curtain Call". I wonder which big library it is stored in?"
"Fragments of "Curtain Call"?"
Walter was stunned, and then fell into deep thought.
After a while, the old man said uncertainly:
"It should be the Great Library No. 1, where the largest number of occult creations are stored..."
Jilan nodded and asked again:
"Then when can I come there?"
"Any time!"
The old man with a messy white beard said quickly.
He turned to the female bookstore owner and said:
"Cecilia, show your Platinum Library Card to my kerosene lamp."
"Yes, Mr. Walter."
Cecilia agreed, picked up Gillan's voucher, walked up to the administrator, and waved it in front of the old-fashioned kerosene lamp hanging on his wooden cane.
Immediately, I saw the kerosene lamp burning.
A complex alchemical formation emerged with the light of the fire.
"Mr. Gillan, please memorize this alchemy formation before heading to the Russell Mountains north of the empire... Once there, this alchemy formation will guide you until you find the entrance to the No. 1 Great Library."
Jilan frowned slightly and said calmly:
"It's too troublesome. Show me the scene in the No. 1 Great Library, and I'll go there myself."
"Huh?!"
Both Walter and Cecilia were stunned.
